"CAN I BE
CURED?"SAYS
THE SUFFERER
How often have you heard that sad
cry from the victims of disease. Per
haps the disorder has gone too far for
help, but oftener it is just in its first
stages and the pains and aches are only
nature's first cries for help. Do not
despair. Find out the cause and give
nature all the help you can and she
will repay you with health. Look after
the kidneys. The kidneys are the most
overworked organs of the human body
and when they fail in their work of
filtering and throwing off the poison
that constantly accumulates in the sys
tem, everything goes wrong. GOLD
MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules will
give almost immediate relief from kid
ney and bladder troubles and their kin
dred ailments. They will free your
body from pain in short order. But be
sure to get GOLD MEDAL. Look for
the name on every box. In three sizes,
sealed packages. Money refunded if
they do not help you.

.THURSDAY EVENING,
lution was adopted by a vote of 304 1
to 89. Supporters of the measure
immediately arranged to carry their
fight to the Senate, where, although
twice defeated at the last - session,
they are confident of obtaining the
necessary two-thirds vote.
The victory for the suffrage forces
yesterday was 42 votes more than
the required two-thirds. On "the
previous ballot on the resolution,
cast January 10, 1918, exactly the
necessary number of affirmative votes
were recorded.
The only Republican to speak
against the resolution was Represen
tative Pocht, of Pennsylvania, who
asserted that his objection would
remain unchanged if his political de
feat was certain. He added that
"no man from New York, Pennsyl
vania or Ohio, down in' his heart,
favors this thing."
House leaders of both parties in
the brief debate preceding yester
day's vote urged favorable action but
many Southern Democrats opposed
the measure, as did several New
England Republicans.
The favorable vote was more, by
fourteen, than would have been nec
essary, had all members of the
House been present. The political
division of the vote showed that 200
Republicans, 102 Democrats, one In
dependent and one Prohibitionist
voted for adoption, while the nega
tive poll showed seventy Democrats
and nineteen Republicans. Speaker
Gillctt, who voted against the reso
lution on previous ballots, did not
vote yesterday.
Fire in Mobile, Ala.,
Sweeps Ten Blocks;
Loss Put At $750,000
Mobile, Ala., May 2 2.— Ten squaro
blocks of Mobile's residence section,
lying near the river front, were
swept yesterday by fire which caused
$750,000 property damage, left 1,500
people houseless, and destroyed
probably 200 buildings.
The flames were checked before
reaching docks and shipbuilding
plants which lay in the path. A
citizens' relief organization hastily
formed, is now caring for those left
homeless.
The fire which started in a trash
pile back of a retail store, was
spread by strong winds over a wide
territory and fanned out of control
for several hours, during which the
business and industrial districts of
the entire city were threatened. The
area devastated was one of the
older residence sections.
Presbyterian Church
of South Approves
Closer Relations
New Orleans, May 22.—The South
ern Presbyterian church in general
assembly here, expressed itself in
favor of working for organic union
with the Northern Presbyterian
church, by voting to negotiate for
"closer relations" with the Northern
church and other Presbyterian bod
ies, after defeating by a vote of 135
to 99, the proposed plan for general
federation of all Presbyterian bodies.
ASK INTERVIEW,
WITH PRESIDENT
American-Irish Delegates
Would Discuss the Irish
Situation
Paris, May 22.—Frank P. "Walsh,
Edward F. Dunns and Michael J.
Ryan, the representatives of Irish
Societies in the United States, have
made public a letter addressed to
President Wilson, asking for . per
mission to present to him personally
the matter of safe conducts to Paris
for Edward De Valera, Arthur Grif
fith and Count Plunkett, as well as
"certain facts of grave import now
in our possession.
The letter gives the history of
the case, showing that on April 17,
Colonel House requested Mr. Lloyd
George, that safe conducts be given
the three Irish leaders as represen
tatives of Ireland to the Peace Con
ference. On the day following, Col
onel House informed them that Mr.
Lloyd George was willing to comply,
but desired an interview with the,
Irish-American delegation before
doing so.
After two tentative dates had been
set by the British Premier, and, not
having been received, they were ad
vised by Colonel House to repeat the
request through Secretary Lansing,
who laid it before the President, to
whom an appeal for a personal hear
ing is now made. In conclusion, the
letter says:
"In view of existing conditions in
Ireland that cannot be denied, to
foreclose its case by refusing a hear
ing to its representatives at this time
would be disconsonant with the de
clared purpose for which the war
has been prosecuted and out of har
mony with the commmon principles
of Democracy."
Colonel House said that the letter
was in error in stating that he had
informed the delegation that Mr,
Lloyd George was willing to comply
with their request for safe conducts
for the Irish leaders. The request
for safe conducts had been made,
but no reply that the request would
be complied with.
Colonel House says that the re
quest was unofficial, except, as the
delegates stated, the President had
referred them to him.

A famous trademark —that grand old Bull
YOU know him well. For over half a century
he has been an American institution. How
perfectly he typifies genuine "Bull" Durham

Sure of himself, sure of the affection of millions,
"Bull" stands as a challenge. He represents
quality bigness in production and popularity.
(Last year over 300,000,000 bags!)
From every bag of genuine "Bull" Durham you

He knows the American game and,
